I'm seriously considering joining the next bootcamp. I need to lose about 10kg and also need to break my sugar addiction. I did a low carb diet many years ago and it worked brilliantly and I felt amazing after the first few days. However, at that time I wasn't doing any exercise. Now I train at least 6 times a week and I'm not sure how this will work with low carb.
I know I can fuel well before and after on protein and fat but what about during exercise? I usually use gels/energy bars/energy drink and I'm not sure what I could substitute that with. Anyone got any ideas? It's the only thing that's stopping me from going for it!
